Rails 5 was released on June 30, 2016 (and it was in beta/rc for a good while before that). That's a good amount of time for maintainers of all active gems to update them. If a gem is not updated to support rails 5, it is likely to not be very well supported in general, and you'll be better off getting rid of it or picking another, more maintained alternative.
